Second time at the hotel, first time during high season, and we had a lovely time in the main, but the nighttime entertainment was really poor apart from one night when they had the Money Makers who were sensational - more of that sort of thing would go a long way.
Reason for such a low rating, the life guards were on their phones often, not watching the young kids and checking out the receptionist said we had not paid for our stay (one week all inclusive) - I nearly had a heart attack and even though I knew I had paid, had me doubting myself. Receptionist Julie was really unpleasant, when I finally found my internet banking proof, she backtracked and said I was only asking you a question, had you paid, which was not the case she was saying that I hadn't paid and wouldn't let me leave until I proved I had, nearly missing our flight. Very unfortunate end to our holiday, that wiped out the feeling of having relaxed in an instant. Take proof of payment! Not a cheap and cheerful place, you expect more for the price.
Lovely hotel , stuff , environment and close to surrounding, malaga aeropuerto! Highly recommended! Very clean and lovely environment rooms !
Barcelo group is a trusted brand however the room size was smaller than anticipated but the balcony made up for this
Great Hotel. Beach front location, beautiful pool. The Hotel was exceptionally clean. The cleaning staff are amazing. The entertainment staff were also amazing, entertaining is around the pool. The food quality is very good, always fully stocked, you never have to wait for anything. Would definitely recommend. Great for couples and families. It’s about a 30min walk to Torremolinos centre but you can get a train or Uber for approximately 3-4 euros pp. 10mins from Malaga airport.
Very pleasant experience, the room was quite nice, clean and the hotel staff very nice. The location was very good a few meters away from the beach, missed parking space in the hotel car parking. The negative part of the stay was the photo experience given by the external photo company. Very nice photographer ruined by very rude staff when presenting the photos. Unclear conditions, payment and all the process was taken in a very rude way until the end. Something to avoid in the future.
